Remarks. The specimen recorded from Panama as Nops maculata by Banks (1929) was transferred to Nops ursumus by Chickering (1967). This specimen is an immature female but has the diagnostic abdominal dorsal pattern of Nops ursumus.

Diagnosis. Both sexes can easily be separated from members of all the other Central American congeners by having five, dark gray, irregular, transversal chevron stripes extending dosolaterally on the abdomen ( Fig. 42A, DView FIGURE 42).
